unable to see my friend shares

Comment:

Hi I have windows xp pro at my work. My friend also has a xp system. I can ping my friend computer successfully but when i try to see his shared folders using start>run>\\"my friend computer ip address" it just opens an empty window without any folder in it. What should i do? Thanks, Habib H.Ghayoumi

Check the subnet mask is the same. Both PCs should have same workgroup. Check your firewall settings.

Haven't your friend forgotten to share the folder properly? It means if his file system is NTFS, he needs to set the security tab permissions as well.
